DISPLAYS WORKING GROUP

Charter: When the ICC Profile Specification was developed, display technology was primarily CRT-based. As a result, the transform tags for the monitor support a simple additive model that is appropriate for that technology. Nowadays, there are numerous new technologies, including LCD, Led, and OLED with various types of backlighting. The simple model described by the ICC Monitor tags is inadequate to completely and adequately describe color displayed by these technologies. The predominance of the sRGB color encoding, which was developed during the CRT era, has been used for a large amount of content. New displays, especially those on mobile devices, often do not model that color encoding completing. In addition, new technologies that provide wider color gamut than sRGB are available. Unfortunately, these devices, because they do not provide a direct means to display sRGB content adequately, often yield inferior results.

The Display Working Group is created to address the aforementioned issues with the following goals:

Work with other groups in the ICC as well as outside organizations to fully define the problems associated with color management of display output;

Identify and categorize display technologies and the appropriate corresponding
transform methodologies for supporting them in ICC workflows;

Where the current ICC specification is inadequate to the needs of display color managements, draft profile proposals to implement the algorithms and data structures developed in #2 and bring them through to acceptance by the ICC; and

Develop algorithms and data structures to implement the methodologies identified in #2 and #3.

GRAPHIC ARTS SPECIAL INTEREST WORKING GROUP

Charter: The primary focus of this working group is to address issues raised when using ICC
Profiles for printing presses or related printing systems, for example digital proofers.

Objectives:

Promote the use of ICC Profiles in 'high end' graphic arts applications.

Identify areas where the existing ICC Profile format is unable to provide the functionality required
by these printing systems.

Propose changes in working practice and if necessary in the ICC Profile format to address current
limitations.

ICC PROFILE ASSESSMENT WORKING GROUP

Charter: The mission of this group is to seek methods for assessing quality of ICC profiles.

Objectives:

Define a set of quality attributes for ICC profiles

Identify analytical methods for defining and investigating performance capabilities of valid ICC profiles. (A valid profile is one that conforms to the ICC specification.)

Investigate metrics that might quantify or qualify said performance characteristics

Recommend promising solutions to the ICC body for their consideration

Short term goal is to develop evaluation methods for use within the ICC

Longer term goal is to offer suggestions to users for evaluation

SPECIFICATION EDITING WORKING GROUP

Charter: The Specification Editing Working Group is responsible for dealing
with issues related to published ICC specifications.

Objectives:

Ensure that balloted changes to published ICC specifications,
including both ICC-published and directly-derived versions are published in minor or major revisions in a timely fashion, including performing the mechanics of ensuring that the specifications are published.

Discuss, review, and make recommendations on non-material changes
to the specifications which help clarify the intent of the specification, as well as ensure that these changes are made to the appropriate published specifications.

Be responsible for the publication and maintenance of new ICC
specification documents as they are developed by the body of the ICC.
